Southwick softball pitcher Emily Lachtara continued her stellar freshman season with another shutout Thursday evening against Gateway. She blanked the Gators for six innings, striking out six batters and allowing just three baserunners on two singles and a walk.

Lachtara now has thrown 17 consecutive scoreless innings in her last three starts. She now has 10 wins on the season and 107 strikeouts for the Bi-County West leading Rams.

Jenn Yelin led the Southwick offense Thursday with three hits, including a double, four RBIs and a run scored. Lachtara helped her cause by knocking in two runs and scoring two, hitting 1-for-2 on the evening.
